Enoch Franklin Wickersham was born at Lynchburg, Ohio, September 7th, 1848, 
and died at Preston, Iowa September 22, 1920, aged 72 years and 15 days. For 
the past 6 months Mr. Wickersham had been in failing health until last 
Wednesday when Death's Angel called him home. For more than twenty-five years 
the family have lived in Chicago. Last fall they went to California, and about 
two weeks ago, enroute home, stopped in Preston, where he grew worse and 
passed away as above stated. 

All through his long illness the deceased bore his cross with hope and 
cheerfullness, resting assured of peace in the heavenly home. Those nearest to 
mourn his loss are the loving wife, Emma L., one son Arthur S. and wife of 
Chicago, three brothers, Martin P., of Des Moines, Cabel H. of West Branch and 
Joseph of Los Angeles, Cal., and four grandchildren, two girls and two boys. 
The funeral was conducted by Rev. Leonard A. Spooner of the Congregational 
church Saturday afternoon at two o'clock. By request of the family the 
minister read the twenty-third psalm and after prayer delivered a short 
comforting message based on the words of the Master: "I am the Ressurection 
and the Life, who so ever liveth and believeth in me tho he die, yet shall he 
live." Interment was made in the Preston cemetery.
